When you’re the head of the biggest film series in the world, things are bound to slip through the cracks. Kevin Feige may be the mastermind of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but he’s not an infallible robot, as much as the She-Hulk finale may attempt to convince you otherwise. He’s no stranger to overcommitting and announcing projects too early — including his own Star Wars movie, which was quietly shelved.
But of all of Marvel and Feige’s unrealized projects, one stands above the rest: Blade. The MCU remake of the classic vampire movie was initially supposed to star Mahershala Ali, but ever since its big glitzy announcement in 2019, every update has been disappointing. Now, it seems the project has finally been put out of its misery, or at least that’s what Kevin Feige is implying.
